Counterpoint: If I was one of the people in charge of keeping it secret and Trump got elected… I would just “forget” to ever schedule that briefing.

Sure, but that assumes this manager would be happy with generic “medical stuff” as an answer…
Right, but if you’re request for denied for something medically necessary unless you revealed it, you went anyway (because it’s necessary), and then you got fired… That feels like it shouldn’t be legal (obviously that doesn’t mean that it isn’t).
I’m not sure it would be legal if they were forced to reveal medical information.
I think better algorithms wouldn’t be a waste of developer resources. At the end of the day, the post feed algorithm is the core product, IMO.
Figuring out how to lower the weights on highly active subs is a good idea. As is ranking smaller subs’ content appropriately.
For all it’s faults, Reddit’s algorithm was pretty good. There was always a decent mix of small and large subs on my feed.
Kbin’s post ranking overall seems better than Lemmy’s and that was a major factor in me choosing it as my home base.
I wasn’t implying that you shouldn’t be able to. Just sharing my opinion on this particular example.
Call me crazy but I think the top one looks better. The art style loses something in the bottom. The character and the background blend into each other two much, there’s line work outlining the character model that gets lost.
I have like 80,000 total Reddit Karma on an 11-year-old account.
In four weeks on Kbin I’ve already gotten 3,100 reputation. It’s just a much nicer community than Reddit.
I’m not saying it should be illegal to release games for only one console. Obviously not every studio is going to have the bandwidth to develop for every platform, and some games will use special features of some systems.
What I’m saying is that it should be illegal for console makers to give any special incentives or preference to developers to do so artificially.
Console exclusives are anti consumer and it should be illegal for console makers to offer any incentive to developers – including studios they own – to make a game exclusive.
Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk
It looks great, but the effects are still quite obviously models.
I would much rather traditional ads than crypto mining. I don’t want Kbin or Lemmy to become environmentally unfriendly electricity sinks.
Oh I see. I misunderstood the comment then. Thanks for the clarification!
Not that this isn’t scummy but my understanding is that “ransomware” refers to software that locks a user or organization out of their systems until a fee is paid, generally my encrypting the disk.
This seems like a more traditional “hack” of a system where you get in and download data. Which makes threatening them is traditional blackmail.
It’s a really interesting way to get around copyright without needing to make your own assets.
Yeah, I have my tab key set up to insert spaces. I meant the characters being used, not the key used to write them.
For sure. Like I said, it’s totally my bias showing. Maybe it’s seeing too many congressmen fundamentally misunderstand the tech. I’ve also run into a lot of older programmers that are highly technical, but still kind of out-of-touch when it comes to the Internet culture that sits on top of the technical layer.
It’s nice to see an older author on a more traditional platform have such a clear and informed opinion on something deeply steeped in internet culture.
I recognize this is agism on my part, but I was surprised when I saw his picture.
They’re tak-ing. myyy. gills.
